Even here you struggle to convince yourself guns are evil because their only (in your mind) use it to kill and maim.
However, you do not seem to be able to rationalize why p2p, which (to copyright holders) is only used to spread copyrighted work, should not be illegal.
Guns can be used for sport. P2p can be used for sharing iso's. Both do have valid uses.
So, now we are down to a few options. We outlaw guns and p2p because both can be used for evil. Or we allow both p2p because though guns and p2p can be used for evil, they are not inherently evil, the users can be. Or we live with our dualism, the fact that we are a "me me me" (think seagulls in Finding Nemo "mine mine mine") society.
Like the Robert Patrick character, she can impersonate other people. She impersonates Kate's fiancee in one sequence, and has a 100% clear chance of killing her before changing to her "regular" form at the last minute and blowing her cover.
First thing: This is an action movie. In action movies suspense is not what the movie is targeting. If they wanted to make terminator a suspense movie they would have the terminatrix change to a different form every scene so you would never know who she was. But they didn't, same as in T2.
Personally I don't think there will be a T4. It simpley wouldn't fit.
I liked the ending for the same reason I liked Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. Not because it had a "sad" ending. But probably for a reason most people don't like. The theme of T2 was "There is not fate, but what you make." In T3 we have fate striking back. You have fate saying, you don't have to believe in me for me to be real. An awful lot like God.
Personally I think that is why most people don't like this movie. They think that they have absolute control over their lives, when in reality they do not. There is always something that has power over you.
So you suggest the US get off its ass and take over the world, cause we are freemarketing?
Watch out what you wish for.
Do you also realize we give a decent chunk of change all over the world? Should we be isolationistic and not help any other country?
You cannot have it both ways without causing issues with other folks. Everyone bitches when the US doesn't do what they want. But remember, its our money, our military, not yours. If you want to, give your own money/military.
The US looks out for its own interests and the interests of our allies. Much like any other country.

I wonder how many ascii art goatse trolls will enter?
I think it is still possible to pull off an attack like that. Sure, they'd have to be even better this time to do it right. However, the ability to pull a similar type attack would totally devestate consumer confidence in the airlines. So, while it might be more difficult to do it, the prize the terrorists would gain would be worth the attempt I think.
Also, I'd think another issue is, how large of a city is considered large enough to protect? Do little towns get protected, or just cities of over a million?
Also, another note, in Chicago they have one of the airports directly in the center of the city, how does the plane get there? Or if there is a narrow pipe for them to fly down to the city, what if the plane needs to abort its landing?
Or the plane could be low on fuel and the air port is on the other side of town. Or damage is done to the plane in some fashion and it wants to land on a highway.
The odds of these things are low, but it seems to me that on the plane there must be a way to get complete control over the plane. Once there is, there is a way to "hack" the system.
Sure, it raises the barrier of entry, but I would not think it could completely deter someone who plans on dying in the attempt anyways.
Personally I think sky marshals seems to be the best way to deal with things right now. Perhaps two on every flight or something, incase one is rogue.
I prefer the low unit cap. It makes keeping your units alive a higher priority. You have to think how to create/group units. In starcraft you could simpley make 70 zerglings fully upgraded for damage and take out just about any town, then when they are all dead make a dozen or so slower units for clean up while the other player is trying to rebuild his town.
1. MPAA members are only using linux to render FX. 2. MPAA somehow stops linux through DRM legislation. 3. ??? (Mainly MPAA members thinking wtf did we just do) 4. MPAA lobbies against DRM required systems. 5. Ofcourse the profit goes here.
That suggests the Moken learn the skill in childhood and do not simply inherit it as an inborn reflex.
Not evolution: (from the article) That suggests the Moken learn the skill in childhood and do not simply inherit it as an inborn reflex.
This is a form of adaptation to their environment.
Evolution is a trait that is passed on through genetics from one generation to another.
Personally I see evolution and survival of the fittest as two separate catagories though. Evolution is mutations (which add to the set of genes), where survival of the fittest is removal of the "bad" (genes which leave the carrier at a disadvantage, which can be localized to area though) genes from the gene pool.
I don't have the man page infront of me right now, but I though strcmp(char*, char*) returned non-zero when they do not match. So, what would be a better check would be:
Most likely health risk is some slashdotter running this machine. Either he'd go blind when women go through, or he'd be beat to death when women go through.
No biggie. Just ask them to smoke outside, like we do at restaurants.
Sure, you may wind up with fewer sailors on your way home, but hey, some how Kirk managed to keep enough crew after every other red shirt turned into a smoking hole in the ground.

Ah finally seeing the light?

Personally I opt for option two.
I thought the humor was okey, but as the reviewer mentions:
Best unintentionally funny line: "I've got enough C-4 to blow up ten supercomputers!"
My wife and I saw the movie last night. When Conner said that, we both were thinking, "So, exactly how many libraries of congress is that?"

Nope, Midway.

Damn you for making me look it up.
Not that while Clinton was in office anything happened terror-wise to the US?
IDIOT.
Never mind the Cole, the embassy bombings, etc.
Clinton had the option once to have binLaden wacked, but he didn't do it.
Get real that it was Bush that spawned the 9/11 attacks.
I think you are wrong here. You see, to have peace in the middle east, Issreal must not exist.
Since this is a prior requirement, peace will not be attained.
That is something all these peace loving folks fail to understand.
I'd disagree here.

Oh, I mean that's why terrorists have been able to bring the air traffic control network down by hacking into it.
Yeah they have! I've seen it in a movie. Die hard something or other.

Hmmm, as far as I can figure, she is definitely female. We've been married for nearly two years.
Now wouldn't that just take the cake.
1. MPAA members are only using linux to render FX.
2. MPAA somehow stops linux through DRM legislation.
3. ??? (Mainly MPAA members thinking wtf did we just do)
4. MPAA lobbies against DRM required systems.

Just a wacky idea.
One would hope that this was intentional, for the "funny" factor.
Chirstmas in my neck of the woods is celebrated on the 25th of December.
Better solution.
Marry another computer geek.
My wife and I met in college in CS262. We both love using, working on, and programming computers.
What I don't get is why folks don't marry people they have a lot in common with and like doing things with.
...and video gamers develop superior hand-eye coordination.
And larg quantities of fat around the mid section.

Most likely health risk is some slashdotter running this machine. Either he'd go blind when women go through, or he'd be beat to death when women go through.
In a world without walls, there's no need for Windows.
Or doors. Granted a whole lot of people will be without homes if we don't have walls.
In a world without fences, there's no need for Gates.
Here we have the problem of the neighbors dog coming over and tearing up your lawn.
So, your premise that we do not need wall or fences is kind of bad.
No biggie. Just ask them to smoke outside, like we do at restaurants.
Sure, you may wind up with fewer sailors on your way home, but hey, some how Kirk managed to keep enough crew after every other red shirt turned into a smoking hole in the ground.
